1994 Chevrolet C/K Pickups

WINDSHIELD WIPERS SOMETIMES WORK, SOMETIMES DON'T. TOOK THE VEHICLE TO JON LANCASTER CHEVROLET IN MADISON, WI TO HAVE THE WINDSHIELD WIPER MODULE (CIRCUIT BOARD) REPLACED AND THEY WOULD NOT AUTHORIZE THE FREE REPLACEMENT. SAID THAT THE VEHICLE HAD OVER 70,000 MILES ON IT AND THUS WAS EXEMPT FROM THE RECALL DEAL. THIS IS NOT RIGHT, THE PROBLEM JUST ABOUT KILLED ME WHEN THE WIPERS WOULDN'T WORK DURING A HEAVY RAIN FALL EVENT WHILE DRIVING ON INTERSTATE 90/94. THEY KNOW ABOUT THIS PROBLEM BUT WON'T PAY TO HAVE IT FIXED.*AK

OCTOBER 15, 2003 WIPERS WORKING INTERMITTENT. NOVEMBER 3, 2003 WIPERS NOT WORKING AT ALL. LOCATED RECALL INFORMATION ON THE DOT WEB SITE AND CONTACTED LOCAL DEALERSHIP. WAS TOLD THAT THE LAST 8 DIGITS OF MY VIN INDICATED IT WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. I CONTACTED CHEVROLET AT THE 800 NUMBER AND WAS TOLD THE SAME THING. ALSO TOLD THAT DUE TO HIGH MILEAGE (143K) IT PROBABLY WOULD NOT BE COVERED ANYWAY; HOWEVER, I SHOULD KEEP A COPY OF THE REPAIR RECEIPTS IN THE EVENT IT MIGHT BE COVERED IN THE FUTURE.*AK

I HAVE BEEN HAVING INTERMITTENT WIPER FAILURE ON MY 1994 CHEVROLET C/K PICKUP. I WAS RESEARCHING FOR THE PROBLEM, AND I FOUND OUT THAT CHEVROLET HAD ISSUED A RECALL NOTICE. I CONTACTED CHEVROLET AND THEY SAID THAT THERE IS A RECALL, BUT MY VIN DOES NOT QUALIFY FOR THE RECALL. WHEN I PRESSURED THEM ON THE SAFETY ISSUES AND THE FACT THAT THE WIPERS CAN QUITE AT ANY TIME ESPECIALLY WHEN IT IS RAINING, THEY SAID THEY COULD DO NOTHING. MY CONCERN IS THAT WITH THE SUDDEN ONSET OF THIS PROBLEM COULD CAUSE SOME SEVERE ACCIDENTS AND WOULD LIKE TO SEE THE RECALL EXPANDED TO ALL VEHICLES WITH THIS WINDSHIELD WIPER CONFIGURATION NOT JUST WHICH VIN OR ASSEMBLY LINE THE PRODUCT CAME OFF OF. I AM ISSUING THIS COMPLAINT BECAUSE I CAN'T WAIT FOR CHEVROLET TO EXPAND THIS TO A REALISTIC RECALL BECAUSE I FEEL THAT IT IS JUST A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE SOMEONE IS INJURED AND MY VEHICLE IS UNUSABLE DURING INCLEMENT WEATHER. *LA

MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS HAVE FAILED. A RECALL CAMPAIGN #03V159000, SHOWS THE 1994 C/K PICKUPS HAVE BEEN RECALLED FOR THIS DEFECT. I HAVE CONTACTED CHEVROLET CUSTOMER SERVICE AND WAS INFORMED THAT MY TRUCK WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. I'M CONCERNED THAT THE TROUBLE EXISTS AND THE SAFETY RECALL DOESN'T APPLY TO ALL VEHICLES WITH THE PROBLEM. *AK

WINDSHIELD WIPER MOTOR WORKS INTERMITTENTLY. TOOK VEHICLE TO DEALER. DEALER SAID THERE WAS A RECALL, BUT MY VEHICLEL WAS NOT INCLUDED. RESEARCHED THIS PROBLEM AT NHTSA AND FOUND NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS GM LETTERS, RECALL INFO, BUT NOTHING FOR MY VEHICLE. SO NOW I'M REGISTERING A COMPLAINT. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY PROBLEM. MY FIRST OCCURANCE WAS ON A CITY STREET, I WAS ABLE TO EASLY PULL TO THE SIDE FO THE ROAD AND SWITCHED THE WIPERS ON AND OFF SEVERAL TIMES AND THEY RESUMED WORKING. THE SECOND TIME I WAS ON A LOCAL FREEWAY AT 65MPH AND THEY QUIT. ALMOST HAD AN ACCIDENT SINCE REAR TRAFFIC ALMOST RE-ENDED ME WHILE I WAS TRYING TO SLOW DOWN SO I COULD SEE.
